I’m Not a Real Writer

Not According to Some Medium Elitists, Anyway

All too frequently I see stories on Medium telling me that I’m not a “serious writer” — whatever the hell that is — because I don’t write my stories by pen or pencil but insist on using my keyboard.

These stories try to convince me that I can’t consider myself a real writer unless I sweat and agonize over pieces of paper before finally committing the results of my blessed sacrament to the keyboard.
